During the day, an inventory was carried out on how many accommodation places there are in each municipality in Västmanland.
In the first phase, it is in Västerås, Sala and Fagersta that about a hundred apartments have been found and contracts signed.
According to Andreas Hornwall at the County Administrative Board in Västmanland, in the first instance it is about apartments and not tents and sports halls, as Minister of Migration Anders Ygeman (S) said at today's press conference.
- First apartments, then collective housing and thirdly tents and sports halls, but I do not think that will be needed, says Andreas Hornwall.
No application from Ukrainians other than in Västmanland
On Wednesday, when SVT Nyheter Västmanland spoke to the county administrative board in Västmanland, no Ukrainian had applied for a residence permit according to the EU mass flight directive.
This means that those who come from Ukraine can receive immediate protection in Sweden and a temporary residence permit.
- It is very important that you do it so we can see how many people are here, if they have care needs and then they also get access to the labor market and school for their children, says Andreas Hornwall.
